8-K Item 2.02: Earnings release
Actionable Insight ▲ Bullish

The second consecutive guidance raise on ARCALYST, combined with positive KPL-387 Phase 2 data and the initiation of the Phase 3 PASTORALE trial, creates a strong catalyst path. Monitor the KPL-387 Phase 3 enrollment pace and any updates on KPL-1161 Phase 1 initiation by year-end 2026 for the next inflection point.
